In this kickoff episode, I unbox the Genesis edition of Bitcoin Art Magazine and celebrate the artists, culture, and community that make Bitcoin feel like magic. <br /><br />From shout-outs to Fractal Encrypt and Sovereign Remnant to reflections on how art, music, and human connection shape our world, I share why supporting physical art matters in a digital age and how Bitcoin’s truth, beauty, and permanence inspire hope. We touch on freedom of expression, code as speech, and the importance of building things that last—while setting intentions for the year ahead. My word of the year is “blessing,” and I invite you to choose yours as we design a brighter life, bit by bit. <br /><br />Join me in honoring the Genesis block anniversary, exploring powerful Bitcoin-inspired works, and committing to create, connect, and uplift our communities. Here’s to a year of art, courage, and warm aloha—buckle up, buttercups!<br /><br />Grab your copy today! <br /><a href="https://Https://bitcoinartmagazine.com" target="_blank">Https://bitcoinartmagazine.com&nbsp;</a></p> <p><br /><p>(00:30) New Year greetings and setting the vibe</p><p>(00:48) Unboxing the Bitcoin Art Magazine</p><p>(01:58) Genesis edition praise and collaboration shout‑outs</p><p>(02:51) Discount code and distinguishing Bitcoin Art Magazine</p><p>(03:21) Why art matters: culture, feeling, and inspiration</p><p>(03:45) Reading from Matix Manifesto and escaping fiat</p><p>(04:35) Celebrating Bitcoin’s creative community</p><p>(05:40) Express yourself: from Bitcoin to visionary art</p><p>(06:09) From disposable culture to lasting beauty</p><p>(06:56) AI, human creativity, and the role of tools</p><p>(07:46) Humans make Bitcoin special: friendships and hope</p><p>(08:22) Free speech, code, and community activism</p><p>(09:28) Honoring Satoshi and the Genesis Block anniversary</p><p>(09:46) Word of the year: blessing and intentions</p><p>(10:18) Wrapping up: aloha, subscribe, and 11x Love notes</p><br /><br /><a href="https://djvalerieblove.com/subscribe❤️" target="_blank"><br />❤️</a>&nbsp; Join the LOVE Tribe for Free!<br /><a href="https://djvalerieblove.com/subscribe" target="_blank">https://djvalerieblove.com/subscribe</a><br /><br />&nbsp; SUPPORT THE SHOW WITH V4V TIPS - Thank You!

I explore the concept of music as medicine and sound as a bridge to the divine. I also discuss the surprising parallels between the freedom-loving Deadhead community and modern Bitcoiners, focusing on our shared values of decentralization, community, and sovereignty. Finally, I dive into my personal insights on navigating life with joyful sobriety, managing energy as an empath, and integrating spiritual wisdom from teachers like Ram Dass.<br /><br />Topics &amp; Questions Covered:<br /><br />How does music serve as spiritual medicine and shift human vibration?<br /><br />What are the cultural connections between Grateful Dead fans and the Bitcoin community?<br /><br />How can empaths stay grounded and protect their energy while remaining open?<br /><br />What lessons on presence and longevity can we learn from Bob Weir?<br /><br />Insights on maintaining joyful sobriety in a high-voltage world.<br /><br />What lights you up and creates community for you? <br /><br />Send me your favorite song, lean into presence wherever you are (even in the grocery line), and let music be the medicine that keeps your heart tuned to love. <br /><br />Aloha, and blessings to Bob Weir and all the artists who keep our souls dancing.<br /><br />Thank you Bob Weir for pouring your heart and soul into ours with your magical music. <br /><br />I hope you are jammin' with all your friends new and old. <br /><br />Long live The Grateful Dead.<br /><br /><a href="https://bobweir.net/" target="_blank">https://bobweir.net/</a> <br /><a href="https://www.dead.net/" target="_blank">https://www.dead.net/</a><br /><br />00:00 - Intro&nbsp;<br />00:30 - Impromptu jam and honoring Bobby Weir&nbsp;<br />01:50 - Music as spiritual glue beyond labels&nbsp;<br />03:52 - Deadhead culture, community, and Shakedown Street&nbsp;<br />05:17 - From Deadheads to Bitcoin: freedom and shared values&nbsp;<br />06:34 - Presence over substances: Ram Dass, Maharaji, and the now&nbsp;<br />08:06 - Legacy of artists and the power to ignite revolution&nbsp;<br />08:44 - Make music your daily medicine and practice&nbsp;<br />09:35 - Gratitude, empathy, and staying grounded in chaos&nbsp;<br />10:16 - Sobriety lessons, vigilance, and self-compassion&nbsp;<br />11:30 - Closing invites, projects, and warm aloha<br /><br /><br /> <p><br /><p>(00:30) Impromptu jam and honoring Bobby Weir</p><p>(01:50) Music as spiritual glue beyond labels</p><p>(03:52) Deadhead culture, community, and Shakedown Street</p><p>(05:17) From Deadheads to Bitcoin: freedom and shared values</p><p>(06:34) Presence over substances: Ram Dass, Maharaji, and the now</p><p>(08:06) Legacy of artists and the power to ignite revolution</p><p>(08:44) Make music your daily medicine and practice</p><p>(09:35) Gratitude, empathy, and staying grounded in chaos</p><p>(10:16) Sobriety lessons, vigilance, and self-compassion</p><p>(11:30) Closing invites, projects, and warm aloha</p><br /><br /><a href="https://djvalerieblove.com/subscribe❤️" target="_blank"><br />❤️</a>&nbsp; Join the LOVE Tribe for Free!<br /><a href="https://djvalerieblove.com/subscribe" target="_blank">https://djvalerieblove.com/subscribe</a><br /><br />&nbsp; SUPPORT THE SHOW WITH V4V TIPS - Thank You!

I share the spiritual reframe that’s been saving me: rejection as God’s protection and redirection.&nbsp;<br /><br />I explore practical ways to self-coach your inner child, become the DJ of your mind, and assign new, empowering meaning to the past while standing in faith during the in‑between. I also offer a peek into the evolving 11x LOVE Code and the bite‑size practices I’m creating to help you stay grounded through messy times, reminding you that you are chosen and loved—always—by the Divine.<br /><br />I touch on navigating triggers, the quiz‑test‑final cycle of growth, and how to stay gentle with yourself when old patterns resurface. If you’re moving through breakups, career pivots, or life’s unexpected shake‑ups, this episode is a hug, a hype track, and a holy reminder that something magical often follows a big fat no. Stay connected for updates on the 11x LOVE Code workshop, book, and upcoming practices designed to help you rewrite your code and design your future with faith and courage.</p> <p><br /><p>(00:32) Opening greetings and setting the theme: rejection and the dark night of the soul</p><p>(01:30) Core wounds, inner child, and self‑coaching practices</p><p>(02:22) Life’s quizzes and tests: recognizing triggers as lessons</p><p>(03:19) Rejection as God’s protection and redirection</p><p>(04:32) From mind chatter to faith: choosing a higher connection</p><p>(05:35) Be the DJ of your life: remixing thoughts and meanings</p><p>(06:35) Rewriting the past by assigning new meaning</p><p>(06:51) Trusting the in‑between: living in faith after loss</p><p>(08:11) Gentleness in setbacks and remembering divine love</p><p>(09:36) Plugging into source: belonging, supply, and safety</p><p>(10:38) Project updates: 11x Love Code, workshop, and newsletter</p><p>(11:23) Messy times ahead and media plans for bite‑size practices</p><p>(13:30) Coaching offerings: roles of coach, cheerleader, and auntie</p><p>(15:07) Supporting people in transition with a clear framework</p><p>(16:30) Envisioning a badass life: goals, mistakes, and lessons</p><p>(17:43) Phoenix moments and many dark nights: collective support</p><p>(18:34) Closing invites: website, newsletter, and farewell</p><br /><br /><a href="https://djvalerieblove.com/subscribe❤️" target="_blank"><br />❤️</a>&nbsp; Join the LOVE Tribe for Free!<br /><a href="https://djvalerieblove.com/subscribe" target="_blank">https://djvalerieblove.com/subscribe</a><br /><br />&nbsp; SUPPORT THE SHOW WITH V4V TIPS - Thank You!

<p>Full episode with transcript and show notes: <a href="https://www.djvalerieblove.com/post/bitcoin-financial-planning-families-morgen-rochard" target="_blank">https://www.djvalerieblove.com/post/bitcoin-financial-planning-families-morgen-rochard</a><br /><br />In this heart-to-heart, I sit down with Morgen Rochard—mom of three, founder of Origin Wealth Advisors, Bitcoiner, author, and podcast host—to explore the intersection of motherhood, money, and Bitcoin. Morgen shares how becoming a parent reshaped her business, inspired a family-first practice culture, and strengthened her approach to delegation and client service. We trace her path from Wall Street to independent wealth management and into Bitcoin—why her conviction grew gradually, how she began advising clients in 2016, and why she believes Bitcoin’s store-of-value phase naturally precedes broader medium-of-exchange adoption. <br /><br />We dive into practical personal finance: saving, behavioral money scripts, family meetings, age-appropriate responsibility, and teaching kids with hands-on money experiences. Morgen unpacks planning trade-offs (homes, cars, travel) and how to design resilient retirement strategies amid volatility—planning to age 100, managing sequence-of-returns risk, and aligning decisions with values. She also previews her next book on Bitcoin personal finance and offers compassionate encouragement to overwhelmed parents: start small, keep learning, and focus on progress over perfection.<br /><br /><a href="https://x.com/MorgenRochard" target="_blank">https://x.com/MorgenRochard</a><br /><a href="https://www.originwa.com/" target="_blank">https://www.originwa.com/</a><br /><br />Grab a Copy of Morgen's Book <br />"Personal Finance QuickStart Guide: The Simplified Beginner’s Guide to Eliminating Financial Stress, Building Wealth, and Achieving Financial Freedom (Personal Finance - QuickStart Guides)"<br /><a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08LBQGWSP/" target="_blank">https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08LBQGWSP/</a></p> <p><br /><p>(00:00:32) Introductions, motherhood juggle, and the "octopus mama"</p><p>(00:01:56) Quality time with kids, independence, and parenting balance</p><p>(00:04:25) How motherhood reshaped business, delegation, and firm culture</p><p>(00:08:29) Leaving big banks to build a family-centered wealth practice</p><p>(00:10:08) From aspiring doctor to Austrian economics and markets</p><p>(00:13:32) Early Bitcoin exposure, safety concerns, and meeting Pierre Rochard</p><p>(00:17:02) Advising on Bitcoin: cautious conviction and client adoption</p><p>(00:20:57) Risk, Sharpe ratio, and Bitcoin’s maturation</p><p>(00:22:56) Store of value before medium of exchange; path to unit of account</p><p>(00:26:49) Taxes, circular economies, and easing people into custody</p><p>(00:32:39) Morgan’s Personal Finance Quick Start Guide and behavior</p><p>(00:36:06) Money scripts, trauma, and realistic optimization</p><p>(00:38:41) Home, nesting, and the art of financial tradeoffs</p><p>(00:41:35) Planning with volatility: sequence risk and runway in retirement</p><p>(00:47:20) Longevity assumptions: why plan to age 100 (or beyond)</p><p>(00:50:09) Lifestyle, meaning, and practical wellbeing in later life</p><p>(00:51:19) Teaching kids money: chores, responsibility, and limited screens</p><p>(01:00:40) Family finance education ideas and five-bucket frameworks</p><p>(01:05:36) Allowances, cash vs. digital, saving and charity habits</p><p>(01:11:32) Purpose, values, and planting seeds over prescriptions</p><p>(01:15:43) Encouragement for overwhelmed parents and where to find Morgan</p><p>(01:18:54) Final reflections: small steps, resources, and goodbyes</p><br /><br /><a href="https://djvalerieblove.com/subscribe❤️" target="_blank"><br />❤️</a>&nbsp; Join the LOVE Tribe for Free!<br /><a href="https://djvalerieblove.com/subscribe" target="_blank">https://djvalerieblove.com/subscribe</a><br /><br />&nbsp; SUPPORT THE SHOW WITH V4V TIPS - Thank You!

<p>In this candid, empowering conversation, I sit down with menopause strategist Marjie Martini to bring light, language, and laughter to a phase too many women are told to just endure. Marjie unpacks her decade-long journey—misdiagnoses, brain fog, bleeding crises, a lifesaving hysterectomy, and ultimately thriving with tailored bioidentical hormones and lifestyle shifts. We walk through her Five Pillars—hormones, nutrition, exercise, sleep, and stress (plus the bonus: community)—and how to approach change without overwhelm by focusing on one lever at a time. From sleep rituals and protein-forward meal prep to cortisol-calming tactics, partner support, and navigating care options and costs, this episode is a practical roadmap to reclaiming wellbeing across a 10–15 year transition that’s different for every woman.<br /><br />We also discuss why “maintenance is cheaper than repair,” the cognitive and bone-health implications of declining estrogen, the nuances of lab testing and finding the right hormone doctor, and why tools must evolve as you do. Marjie shares resources, real client wins, and concrete strategies for women—and their partners—to reduce stigma, advocate at work, and make menopause not just bearable, but a season to play, lift heavy, love big, and lead with fewer f*cks given about the noise and more care for ourselves and each other.</p> <p><br /><p>(00:00:30) Opening: Making menopause more bearable, not medical advice</p><p>(00:01:40) Guest intro: Margie Martini and the five pillars tease</p><p>(00:01:56) Menopause as a 10–15 year transformative process</p><p>(00:03:02) Tools and the evolving menopause toolbox</p><p>(00:03:59) Hosts personal spiral and sleep struggles</p><p>(00:05:19) Margies journey: misdiagnosis, brain fog, and bioidenticals</p><p>(00:09:06) Books, WHI fallout, and HRT backlash</p><p>(00:11:46) Barriers to care and finding a practitioner</p><p>(00:13:00) Lab insights and life-changing hormone support</p><p>(00:15:27) Emergency hysterectomy and lifestyle adjustments</p><p>(00:17:29) Rethinking exercise, stress, and symptom relief</p><p>(00:18:07) The Five Pillars: hormones, nutrition, exercise, sleep, stress (+community)</p><p>(00:19:40) Sleep wins: protocols, magnesium, and 03:00 wakeups</p><p>(00:21:32) Start with one pillar: food frequency and fueling</p><p>(00:23:19) Client case study: sleep ritual to nutrition reboot</p><p>(00:27:06) From brain fog to workouts: managing cortisol and stress tools</p><p>(00:30:36) Natural routes vs HRT and finding the right doctor</p><p>(00:32:04) Testing, seasons, and scripts that change</p><p>(00:34:10) Menorage and a turnaround story with HRT</p><p>(00:34:10) Hot flashes, quick adjustments, and mood swings</p><p>(00:37:35) Partners role and a book for men</p><p>(00:40:41) Sex, pain, timing, and setting the mood</p><p>(00:43:01) Overwhelm happens: tools, water, music, and boundaries</p><p>(00:45:10) Cost, access, and budgeting for hormone care</p><p>(00:50:43) Sleep, sobriety, and going slow</p><p>(00:51:36) Trust your body: prevention and cognition benefits</p><p>(00:53:33) Workplace advocacy: supporting top performers in menopause</p><p>(00:57:51) Light at the end: empowerment after 45</p><p>(01:02:46) Rites of passage: from crone to empress years</p><p>(01:05:18) Balance the inside: evolving tools and lifelong habits</p><p>(01:10:31) Make it fun: lifting weights, buddies, and retreats</p><p>(01:13:28) Realistic time management and self-compassion</p><p>(01:15:32) Protein Powerballs and food prep hacks</p><p>(01:17:21) Ask for help before the rock bottom</p><p>(01:18:58) If not HRT, optimize the other pillars and supplements</p><p>(01:19:50) Depression, anxiety, thyroid, and comprehensive care</p><p>(01:21:45) Find educated doctors and read your symptoms, not just labs</p><p>(01:23:30) Recommended resources: books and The M Factor</p><p>(01:25:57) Retreats, Instagram, and how to work with Margie</p><p>(01:27:52) Final advice: listen, respect, and act before the scream</p><p>(01:29:22) Maintenance over repair: heed the check engine light</p><p>(01:30:24) Closing gratitude and invitation to thrive</p><br /><br /><a href="https://djvalerieblove.com/subscribe❤️" target="_blank"><br />❤️</a>&nbsp; Join the LOVE Tribe for Free!<br /><a href="https://djvalerieblove.com/subscribe" target="_blank">https://djvalerieblove.com/subscribe</a><br /><br />&nbsp; SUPPORT THE SHOW WITH V4V TIPS - Thank You!
